I finally upgraded my trucks, wheels and bearings on my longboard. Figured I'd paint it while it was back to just a ski. Digging the black. It handles so much better now, I had some crummy narrow trucks and small wheels before. Used to be cream, orange and yellow - misplaced the Obrien fin cap, need to clean out the garage.

To me, this forum is about love of inboard boats. It is about the sharing of information and, on a good day, some humor. It is not about post count, brand of boat, or any other superfluous labels that lend themselves to a false sense of superiority. Please, respect one another, try to pass on accurate information, and keep your eye on the ball.

I like how much it flexes, reminds me of a Cadillac. Corners like one too. That long wheel base makes navigating sidewalk cracks a bear, better in the street. May also be that my back foot doesn't have much leverage to angle the board for turns. It's great for down hill and is stable enough that I'm comfortable carrying my 2yo in a hiking backpack to and from the neighborhood pool. I'm loving the ebay running gear for $35. Not as nice as the gullwings I wanted but I don't have to worry about my kids thrashing it either. I do need some deck traction.

nice! I just inherited 71 demon....needs a fuel pump but is otherwise super clean. I'd like to upgrade the suspension and rims... been hanging out on the forabodiesonly.com forum but there isn't the same camaraderie like you get here.

I have a 69 Roadrunner. Been a member of www.moparts.com for 15 years. Great site and board like this one.

Will do. Know this, it's not a careless endevor. This girl is so head-strong, she won't stay off the thing. I prefer to rolling at a slow walking pace with her vs the alternative to her crashing while attempting to ride it on her own.

Tell me about it. My now-seven-year-old would stop talking about wanting to skateboard when he was 4. We got him one when he was 5 with the understanding that if he was ever seen riding without a helmet, daddy would have another skateboard. I, then, told my wife that "if he gets one, I'm getting one.

I got the first longboard and he got a street board. That Christmas, he got a mini longboard. It's amazing watching him bomb hills.

I love it! I've been asking for a longboard for a few years. Since that never happened, I converted this old ski my wife found in a dumpster. Since I upgraded and have been riding the past few weeks, all of my kids have a renewed interest in the shared skateboard for the kids. BTW, in addition to this ski, there was a Maheraja slalom ski (67", not like that barge of a ski you've got) that I sold for about $120. If it would have been wood, I'd have kept it.
